This is my boost switch
It is out of the dash
I have lots if patience
Just don't know how to get to the bulb without fear of breaking something

I believe you pull the 2 outer prongs .. release the little clip above it and should pull right out

Before I dig into the switch, is it possible the solenoid is bad? How do I test?

You can get them anywhere. Just stop by O'Reilly's or NAPA or wherever.

Two ways of telling if the boost switch is working.

Check digital voltmeter when you flip the switch.

Go back to the boost solenoid and listen for the click it makes when someone flips the switch. No noise, no boost (if you have the mechanical type that is normally installed). This is the Cole-Hersee that we have on our coach: Amazon.com: Cole Hersee 24213 12V 200A Continuous Solenoid: Automotive

Most any truck stop in Mexico should have the solenoid if bad. Autozone or NAPA in Mexico also.
